Out of interest do you train the squat much? I mean if the theory that squatting helps build the other lifts indirectly is true you must have a huge raw squat!

I just started back actually, with the bicep/shoulder/pec injury I had earlier it made it very painful to put my arm around the bar. I have been doing the 20 rep squat program lately(to a box) and have gone up to 515 for 20. No idea what I would max out at, but I do feel it helps build the entire body.

I'd like 515 to a box for 1 to tell you the truth - that's unreal. Any plans to compete in a full meet? surely you could give the likes of Siders or Glen Ross a run or their money in a raw meet?

try alternating your footing a little, also make sure your right and left feet are equal distance from your midline. i had this problem left was always a couple inches out more and it made my squats really hard over time

finally, you should be sitting into a chair with weight distribution on your heels mostly but dont lift your toes or anything. put bar low on your back if you can (not too low), get out of the rack with knees bent... you probably know all this already but for others who maybe reading
